Our ‘Operation Hammurabi Code’ will decide Nigeria’s fate, Militants vows

A militant group, the Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate (NDGJM) has threatened to launch ‘Operation Hammurabi Code’, which it said will decide the fate of Nigeria.

The group described the Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government as a corrupt system that should never be trusted and vowed not to join in the ceasefire declared by other militant groups in the Niger Delta.

NDGJM, which also taunted Niger Delta Avengers for rushing to declare ceasefire, said it would continue to attack oil facilities until the government and oil firms operating in the area show genuineness in resolving the issues of discord in the region.

This was contained in a statement issued on Monday by the spokesman for the militant group, Aldo Agbalaja.

According to the group, “The chickens seem to be coming home to roost now. The truth is dawning on the blacklegs that are working to short-change their people will always backfire. When the Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate said we were out to engage the oppressors to the last, some snickered and bluffed, their indignation became most annoying when those pretenders called Avengers gave life to our prediction and announced a ceasefire. Now they are all coming back to the basics; falling back in line after seeing, first hand, that we have been right all along about the Nigerian Federal Government; it is a corrupt system that should never be trusted.

“However, we are using this medium to warn the Nigerian Armed Forces to properly advise their leadership; militarisation of our region can only lead to an avoidable armed confrontation and if this happens, we swear by the gods and ancestors of our land, we shall ensure it is a long and tedious campaign that the Nigerian state will forever regret.

“Until we see a sincere and genuine step towards a just and equitable mending of the injustices of all the years past done to our people, this war shall persist and we can guarantee that they cannot win this one, even if they get all the world’s arsenal assembled behind them.

“Operation Crocodile Tears is the mildest of what the world should expect from us, by the time we initiate the phase II and get started with ‘Operation Hammurabi Code’ only God knows what will then become of these plains called Nigeria,” Agbalaja said.
